Trial design: Rivaroxaban for the prevention of major cardiovascular events post transcatheter aortic valve replacement: rationale and design of the GALILEO study
Conclusions GALILEO will test the hypothesis that a rivaroxaban-based antithrombotic strategy reduces the risk of thromboembolic complications post-TAVR with an acceptable risk of bleeding compared with the currently recommended antiplatelet therapy-based strategy in subjects without need of chronic oral anticoagulation.

Association of Measured Platelet Reactivity with Changes in P2Y12 Receptor Inhibitor Therapy and Outcomes Following Myocardial Infarction: Insights into Routine Clinical Practice from the TRANSLATE-ACS Study
Conclusions Only one-third of PCI-treated MI patients with high on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity were switched to a more potent P2Y12 receptor inhibitor. Intensification of antiplatelet therapy was associated with lower risk of ischemic events at 1year among HPR patients.
